Under 2.5 goals at Everton vs Watford 11/10 for Saturday Premier League matchup

Competition: Premier League

Market: Under 2.5 goals

Odds: 11/10 @ Bet 365

Two sides who endured a sluggish start to the new Premier League campaign, Everton will host Watford on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, despite spending big during the summer transfer window, Everton struggled to make much of an impact in their 0-0 draw away at Crystal Palace last weekend. Now on a run of form that has seen them record just a single victory in their last seven matches across all competitions, it is also worth noting that the Blues have managed to register just a single goal in any of their last five contests, with four of those ending with a score of 0-0. You will also be interested to know that five of Everton’s last six matches on home soil have seen under 2.5 goals at full-time.

As for the visitors, despite briefly dreaming of a European charge last season, Watford slumped to a very disappointing 3-0 defeat at home to Brighton last weekend. Appearing to carry on with the struggles that saw them have to settle for a bottom half finish in the Premier League last year, the Hornets have now lost their last six matches against top-flight opposition and it is also worth noting that they have lost five of their last six Premier League matches on the road. Given both sides sluggish start to the 2019/2020 campaign, we’re backing a low-scoring encounter on Saturday.
